~~Sequel to Bo & The Beast: this story features an array of favorite villains from classic tales, as well as continuing the tale of a beauty and her beast.~~ In her search for Adam, Bo stumbles upon a group of renegades called The Forlorn. Their ranks are made up of villains and bad-guys, and they are seen as scum by the tight-fisted Militia who patrol the city. Not one to shy away from outcasts, Bo joins their ranks in order to get closer to finding Adam. It is while she is getting to know the ways of the Forlorn that she learns of the dastardly Militia leader Clayton's illegal activities as he sells slaves to an insane cult-leader and terrorizes the small settlements outside of the city borders. Though the Forlorn are broken people with dark pasts, Bo determines to throw her lot in with theirs. Together, they will fight the corrupt Militia, protect those who need it, and perhaps Bo may even find her lost love in the process.

In this futuristic retelling of Beauty and the Beast, Bo is the leader of a group of refugees with no homes to return to. It is the time after a great war between the inhabitants of earth and creatures from another planet. Now the humans rely on scavenging the war-torn remains of the blast zones to keep themselves alive. When Bo's father is late returning from a hunt, she knows something has gone wrong. Fearing that he might have taken her request to bring back a now-extinct rose seriously, Bo sets off to find him in the Dead Woods. Only, when she does find her father, she also finds an enemy that was thought to have left the planet long ago. Bo is forced to choose between her freedom or her father, her refugees or a creature she wants to kill with every fiber of her being.
